I´m setting up my website for an Instagram store, when I access it says that it´s safe, so SSL should be enabled but when I´m in admin mode it says it still isn´t fully migrated. Also when I tried to enter it into Instagram bio it said that it can´t be reached.

Your Key and Certificate directories are not properly protected. For more information on this subject, please read this article

Above is the message that appears on Wordpress, it says I should ask my host to secure them, could you help me out @Admin ?

Welcome! Your site is all set to use HTTPS, however you just need to force it upon the visitor. Check out the article below!

How to force all traffic to HTTPS

After you’ve enabled SSL for your website, you’ll probably want to redirect all traffic on your website to the https version of your site. There are multiple ways to do that. Let’s compare some commonly used ways. Using script configuration Some scripts (including Wordpress) have a setting which allows you to set your website URL. By changing this URL from http://example.com to https://example.com, the script will probably redirect visitors to the https version of your site. Even if your script…

From the linked article:

this warning occurs when your SSL certificate files aren’t protected. This happens when Really Simple SSL has created an ssl/certs and ssl/keys directory in your websites root folder

Why would you let Really Simple SSL create these directories? You can just delete them and use our free SSL certificates tool. If you use our tool, your SSL certificate keys are safely stored outside of any web accessible directories.

You don’t really need Really Simple SSL if you’re using our free SSL certificates in the first place, and it most definitely doesn’t need to be handling any keys and certificates.

I have no idea what this means. I don’t use Instagram.

when I tried to enter it into Instagram bio it said that it can´t be reached.

That is because of this:

Ensuring only web browsers can access your website

InfinityFree is a website hosting service. That means that the hosting accounts we provided are intended for hosting websites. Websites contain pages that are accessed through web browsers. InfinityFree is not intended to be used for file sharing, API hosting, database hosting or background tasks/tools. To help enforce this, free hosting enforces a security system that makes sure that anyone trying to access your website is using a normal web browser. This is done by checking whether the web br…

All InfinityFree sites have a script called /aes.js and it prevents non-web browsers (such as a bot) from accessing your site.

So, in other words, I am not able to use an infinityfree hosted site as a vessel for an Instagram store? I was looking for a free hosted site so I reckon moving to premium isn´t an option. That feature is irremovable isn´t it?

[wackyblackie]

It is not present on premium.

Although not removable, you can get around it by using Cloudflare, I linked my guide below.

A Full Guide To Cloudflare

Hello, I will show you how to easily set up Cloudflare, Edit Records, and Troubleshoot with images! PLEASE READ BEFORE STARTING!!! Cloudflare cannot be used on free subdomains from InfinityFree. You can use Cloudflare on Custom Domains (yoursite.com) and with Custom Sub-Domains (subdomain.yoursite.com). A video tutorial can be found at the end of this guide, should you get stuck. You must connect your domain to your InfinityFree account first. Read more here. Set-Up Cloudflare Go to Dash…

[damnsetup]

Thanks a bunch! Just to be sure, I can´t use Cloudflare on my current free infinity free domain (damnsetup.great-site.net)? So I´ll have to create a domain on what free hoster?

[Greenreader9]

Ah, no you can’t. But you can get a free domain from freenom (Don’t choose .tk), and that will work until your willing to pay for a .com
